Former welterweight champion boxer Floyd Mayweather, Jr., a.k.a. âMoney Mayweatherâ, has won a domain name dispute for MoneyMayweather.com. Mayweather was 39-0 in the ring during his career, and carried his winning ways to arbitration.
The panel found that Mayweather had common law rights to the âMoney Mayweatherâ name, even though he doesnât have a filed trademark. This is common in cases of celebrities. It also found that it was irrelevant that the paid links on MoneyMayweather.com were unrelated to the celebrity and his sport.
